Who speaks Japanese?

[Yui Z]

I'm not fluent, but I've been learning for a couple of years now. That's enough to at least know the basics and the first two alphabets, haha. I hope to be fluent ish one day.

 

[Kaiaa]

I'm not fully fluent but I know enough that if I ever found myself in Japan, I'd do fine. I study off and on, usually in the summers when I'm not busy with College. I'd like to practice with some of you!

Nice google translate Kildor ;D

Your welcome.

 

[macuppie]

I'm learning and just started like less than a week ago. I am learning the basic stuff, such as writing hiragana and other stuff.

Same here. ^ I could easily hold a conversation with a Japanese person and understand what was going on around me. I know more than the basics, but definitely not close to fluent... Yet. I've been learning Japanese for 4 years now, after all, and I plan to do lots of studying during my summer holidays. I'd love to attend a Japanese university (I believe there's quite a lot of English speaking courses so you wouldn't need to be fluent, however I'm sure you'd need some basic knowledge to be able to get by...) in the future, or at least study out there for a while. It's a little far away, but that's the long-term goal.

Wakarinai. Gomen.

I have been able to communicate a bit using common words and phrases with some japanese players on Club Tortimer, though.
It works so-so as long as they don't use too much hiragana.

 

[Cazqui]

I've been learning it on my own for close to 3 years. I'm not the best but I'm sorta skilled....sometimes.

 

[Ichigo Senpai]

I'm nowhere near fluent, but i can understand every other word (less probably). I also know very little Hiragana and Katakana, and some of the easier kanji (like hito 人).

I'm on and off so much that I haven't really gotten much better at speaking/reading Japanese. It's mostly because I'm so busy with school, i have no time to study it at all because I'm focusing more on my academics. Unfortunately, my school does not offer Japanese. I do plan on becoming fluent, though that might take a while.

 

[Shadow Star]

I've been self teaching on and off for about 5 years now. I was really hoping my school would teach it, but we stuck with German and French. I can't read or write Hirigana and Katakana very well and I only know a few phrases of Kanji. A lot of what I've learn has come from anime and Japanese bands. The songs really help because I remember more because the melody makes it easier for me to remember what comes next in the song, but speaking wise, I could ask how someone is, ask for directions and order some food and drink. Oh, and some of the Japanese greetings and manners, but nearly everyone knows that. ^_^" I think I know several words on their own that if used in a sentence, I may have an idea of what a person is saying... possibly.

I may pick up on it again over the next few years. It's just with so many different softwares, books, etc, I find it hard to tell which is 'proper' Japanese, if you get what I mean ( I may have failed in defining that. But you like, how you can get one book that may say a phrase means one thing, but then another book will say it's something else... that issue). I'm currently using a site called memrise to help me for the moment, but I can hardly remember anything from it... I'm not made to learn languages... OTZ

 

[Atsushicchi]

I've been teaching myself since a year ago.

I can understand some katakana and little kanji~

 

[Redlatios]

I'm nowhere near fluent talking, but I could survive in japan.

 

[xiaonu]

I'm not fluent, but I self taught myself at home for 5ish years. I'm really passionate towards it. I know a decent amount of kanji, as well as the hiragana and katakana. My only difficulty is knowing when to properly say the kanji correctly, because they can have multiple ways of speaking them depending on the grammar and context. For example 一人　is not pronounced いちひと　or　いちじん　（じん　is another way to say 人。) It becomes something completely different, which is ひとり。 So confusing @~@. because why is ひと said first. Why is it said completely different anyway? I'm getting carried away, but yep other than that, its very fun to learn and easy.

 

[SodaDog]

I'm currently learning the basics.

 

[Mahoushoujo]
